one less spoonful. i repeat, and eat less. one less kilogram. i repeat, and eat less. as i look at my own reflection in the mirror, as if to mock me, it's all the same; i am still not enough. one less craving. i say, as my stomach grumbles. one less meal. i say, as the bile comes rushing in, forcing its way out. one less spoonful. i say, as i head to the comfort room after a meal. one less kilogram. i say, as i force my fingers into my mouth, expelling the contents of my own stomach.

one less.
one less spoonful. i repeat, and eat less. one less kilogram. i repeat, and eat less. as i look at my own reflection in the mirror, as if to mock me, it's all the same; i am still not enough. one less craving. i say, as my stomach grumbles. one less meal. i say, as the bile comes rushing in, forcing its way out. one less spoonful. i say, as i head to the comfort room after a meal. one less kilogram. i say, as i force my fingers into my mouth, expelling the contents of my own stomach.
